- Tearing out carpet is disgusting, especially when the carpet is 40 years old.
- There's a good chance the carpet pad underneath will disintegrate on contact with air.
- Always have fun - it makes things so much easier
- If it seems too easy, brace for the hardship, because it's coming (and it came... in the form of a stairwell runner)
- Plumber's crack is funny, even when you're not a plumber and ESPECIALLY after 9 hours of removing carpet, tack and staples from 4 rooms and 15 stairs.
- Shop vacs are the greatest invention known to man - they pick up the biggest piles of disintegrated carpet with the greatest of ease.
- When all is said and done, and you've actually completed your project, you feel pretty good.
